..I could have sworn I wrote something in here in the last couple of days..but its not here..so I suppose I only imagined it. My mind does that at times..its none too reliable anymore.
..at any rate..Trevor is now six months old. He is sitting up by himself, and rolling over so that you have to keep an eye on him. He will soon be crawling Safiya says..and then he will be into everything. He is a happy child, and angelic to the point that it makes me smile and laugh. Nothing else holds the power to do that so genuinely. I dont care what he is..or what he will grow up to be..if I can just keep him while he is young. I know now, I cannot give him up..even to his father. I dont think Faizah could either..or Safiya. If I can but hold on to him until he reaches age..then maybe, no matter where he goes, he will remember his abundance of mothers. Indigo must miss him terribly..but there is naught I can do to help that.
I think about Trevors father often..and wonder if he will indeed come for him. If what he said holds true, I have but two short months until I must face that. If he does not come in the time he said he would, then I will feel a great relief..but some sadness as well. Despite everything..The Traveler and I shared something rare..and it will forever stay with me. I will carry the guilt regret of my choices for the rest of my days.
Faizah and I had a bit of a fun time the other day, at the docks. We clobbered a couple of sailors, and snuck on board their scow. The captains name is Dominic, and with a suprise visit from R'Auco, we gained a promise of the captains cooperation to help me get the old Gluepot back.
Faizah wants me to go with her, for the captain has agreed to teach her if she sails with them to the Isle of Gems.
I wont go back there though..ever. I cant. I hate that island..and I hate everything that ever happened on it. I do want my horse back though, as I think of her almost every day. I feel as if I have betrayed the old mare..but there was nothing I could do about it.
Of course the captain will profit from his venture..there was a great deal of coin and spoils left there on the island. If its still there, then he will find it a lucrative venture. I didnt mention that Arlo was left there, and has probably made herself a nesting lair out of every gold coin she could find. I suppose he will find out when he arrives. I will warn Faizah though (if she goes), that I dont find my captain dead before he gets back with my horse.
It was quite a suprise to see R'Auco after so long..I rather missed the old furball, and his male company is about the only one I can tolerate right now. I hope he sticks around.
Trevor is awake and crying..Ill write more later.
